They said that there have been many reports submitted by crews saying that the route is just not suited to being run by CE equipment.
I would also note when i flew this route in May, on the LHR-LCA-TLV leg the boarding in T5A had a huge traffic jam of wheelchairs which delayed overall boarding by 30 minutes almost.
